Book Information: Detroit Deathwatch

That's the mob's annual "take" in Detroit. Fact, not fiction. The Mafia has big muscles in the Motor City.

Sure, the rackets and scams like gambling, prostitution, loansharking and such pull in plenty of ready cash... $150 million or more.

But on top of that, and beyond calculation, is the really big dough in legitimate businesses where the mob has a stranglehold on management and profits. Closely connected to the business scene are such lucrative operations as labor racketeering, hijacking, smuggling, narcotics and counterfeiting. Detroit is an underworld showcase. The high cost of living is merely part of the profit picture.

In Detroit it's General Motors, Ford... and Mafia. Money-making giants. Crime is an industry here, assembly-line smooth, high-powered and cutting a wide track. That is, until Mack Bolan decides to throw a king-sized monkey wrench into the works.

Throughout all of the Executioner's wars, no other city has ever been hit so fast and so hard. Can the high cost of dying bankrupt a mob this powerful? Just watch...
